Reframeables’ first ever live recording!

Writer Junot Diaz said: “When the world is burning, spending a little time with one’s people — in our case: book lovers — is no small gift, precisely because the world is burning.” So that’s what we did with our live podcast recording a few weeks ago. We spent time with our people: fellow book lovers and the extraordinary Emma Donoghue, reframing risk and reinvention.

Irish-Canadian Emma Donoghue is the author of sixteen novels and numerous plays, a fixture on the New York Times bestseller list, and the mind behind Room — long-listed for the Booker Prize, adapted by Emma into an Academy Award-nominated screenplay. She’s done it all, and we couldn’t wait to ask her everything. Her latest, The Paris Express, is the book we couldn’t put down.
